Just Dumb Enough Podcast
Being “Just Dumb Enough” is all about being okay with yourself, and the situation you find yourself in, after you bring up a topic in front of a real expert. My name is Colton Petry, I am the Host of the Just Dumb Enough Podcast, and I‘m your professional idiot. The premise of the show is exposing the general listening audience to topics, careers, experiences, or lifestyles they may otherwise know very little about.

High Performance Coaching with Jordan Willshear
Monday Oct 03, 2022
Monday Oct 03, 2022
How many of us out their struggle with perfectionism? Not a clinical "it consumes my life" perfectionism, but just a nagging feeling that you have to be better when you are doing a specific task. I know when I mess up on a project, even if it's just for fun, I beat myself up relentlessly. Does that sound familiar?
My guest today is Jordan Willshear. Jordan has been coaching for going on 12 years now and frequently sees clients who struggle to find their way or can't seem find a good balance between their results and their aspirations.
Please do go back and listen to that one year episode if you haven't already. I'd really like to hear feedback on the ideas.Also please take a brief moment to rate the show five stars on iTunes, Spotify, or Audible. The only way to help this show grow is to get new reviews and new listeners, and you can do your part by telling other people that you enjoy the podcast.I'm always looking for new topics, guest ideas, and questions from the audience. To reach out to me email DumbEnoughPodcast@Gmail.Com or send a message on any of the show pages on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, or wherever else.
The October rankings are all out of whack because it's a brand new month, but here we go:1. United States, making up only 35% of the audience with California and Wisconsin as the top states.2. Spain. Welcome to the top Spain, hopefully you keep growing in listeners and stay up here.3. Australia, with New South Wales tied for first with South Australia.4. Iran.5. Myanmar.
The list is certainly shaken up by the way monthly statistics reset, but maybe this will put more pressure on those who used to be in the top 5.

Self-Identity with Urmi Hossain
Thursday Sep 22, 2022
Thursday Sep 22, 2022
Who am I? That's a question that can plague nearly anyone on the planet. You know your name, where you come from, and what you do day to day. But have you done an inventory of your history and life experiences to see what made you?
My guest today is Urmi Hossain. Urmi currently works as in the financial services industry of Canada. But before that she was just a Bengali girl growing up in Italy and wondering which cultural norms she was supposed to be emulating. What things were true to her? And what things were just expected? It was a journey through life which took her several decades and moving across the world to figure out.She's written a book and now speaks publicly on the importance of discovering who you are for your own sake. It's something any of us should take the time to at least think about, even if you think your the most vanilla person in the world. Vanilla is still it's own flavor no matter what mint chocolate chip might say.

I'll see you all either Sunday night for the 7pm (Pacific Time) live stream on Podbean, or Monday when the next episode goes up. We'll be celebrating one year of being Just Dumb Enough on the airwaves! I can't wait!

Lock Picking/Smithing with Chad Amodeo
Thursday Sep 15, 2022
Thursday Sep 15, 2022
Do you feel safe with the security you currently have on your home? Do you want to keep that feeling? If so you may not want to listen to my expert break down just how easy it is to break into your house from his time as a legal burglar.
My guest today is friend of the show and of myself, Chad Amodeo. Chad spent several years as a burglar for hire, or as the layman call it, a locksmith. He puts on display that you don't have to put in decades to know your craft, and serves as a beacon for any other listeners who might want to come on the show, but don't feel super confident about their experience level.
Chad also deserves a round of applause, because after hearing that I had multiple guests cancel or no show last minute and seeing how stressed I was about not having an episode ready, he volunteered despite it being after a long work day and late at night.
We also recorded on an older mic in my dining room instead of in a proper studio space, sorry the audio quality is a little lower this episode, but at least there is an episode.
Lastly, although I bring it up later on, the one year anniversary of this show being launched is coming up at the end of the month, so I'm prepping a big episode where I talk about all the successes, hardships, and answer audience questions.

Commodity Markets with Noah Healy
Monday Sep 05, 2022
Monday Sep 05, 2022
Can you imagine having a car that's 300,000 times more efficient than your current one? To give you a hard number, it like 20mpg vs 240 times around the earth per gallon... While we are nowhere near that with cars, that is exactly the efficiency difference that my guest today has created when he designed a new system to streamline the commodities market. Don't worry if that all sounds over your head, it was way over mine and you can laugh at me for how many times I was wrong throughout this interview.
My guest today is Noah Healy. Noah refers to himself as a recreational mathematician, which instantly makes him way more intelligent than me. He is also a marketplace design consultant and has developed exactly that new system I referenced at the very start. Usually I do a bit more breakdown into guest background and history, I stopped trying to understand all his qualifications after I saw nuclear science as an "early life" degree.Frankly Noah is so smart that I wouldn't blame anyone for being lost. We do try to explain everything simpler after each big section, so bear with me.
Last thing: the one year anniversary of this show being launched is coming up at the end of the month, so I'm prepping a big episode where I talk about all the successes, hardships, and answer audience questions. Send any questions you might have ever wanted to ask to DumbEnoughPodcast@Gmail.Com
